Instead of using expensive, and fancy named, boutique cleaners I just
use (or used, before SST) Kontakt:

I used Kontakt 60, and when I was very ambitious, followed by Kontakt
WL and Kontakt 61.

I would be surpised if the fancy name stuff is not just repackaged
versions of this type of industrial standard stuff. Enormously marked
up, of course.
